Benefits of technology

The patent describes a technology that can measure environmental factors to determine if a virus like COVID-19 will spread from one person to another. The technology also allows for a virtual reality experience where users can see a virtual representation of their surroundings with information about people and conditions. Users can interact with the virtual environment to get more details about people they meet. Overall, the technology can help prevent the spread of viral contagions by measuring environmental factors and providing information about people in real-time virtual environments.

Problems solved by technology

It cannot provide further control and assurance that those on campus will only access areas related to their purpose for being on campus, and cannot provide feedback as to behavior during a person's time on the campus.

Embodiment Construction

[0049]The present invention provides a safety system with methods and apparatus for tracking a position and orientation of person(s) within a defined area as well as physiological measurements (sometimes referred to herein as “biometrics”) of the person. The physiological measurements may be used to infer a relative health of the person, and whether the person represents a health hazard to other persons that are within a distance deemed to impart adverse health conditions.

[0050]In some embodiments, a path (multiple positions at specific time intervals) traversed by the person tracked may be recreated and compared to positions of other persons and / or items. For example, if a first person, Ms. Smith is being tracked, the present invention will determine if a path Ms. Smith traveled coincided with a path traveled by Mr. Jones, and also whether Ms. Smith and Mr. Jones faced each other while they were within a threshold distance. A sensor may be used to quantify a physiological condition...

Abstract

Apparatus for electronically quantifying conditions of a person and an environment containing the person, as well as a sequence of positions occupied by the person and a direction the person faced at those positions. Wireless communications track a series of positions over time and provide user interfaces indicating where a person has been and who the person has come within a minimum distance of. Sensors may be operative to provide ongoing evaluation of a condition of the person, such as a body temperature and heartrate which may trigger an alarm state if the body temperature rises above a specified value. Electronic sensors may also be quantify environmental conditions over time and present the conditions in the user interface.
